As you know he was from where I am currently situated at work in Dunfermline and the Wealth of nations helped create the Academic disipline of Economics. Bit Tenuous i know but hey we also said Nigel Quashie was Scottish.
We don't want to take credit for others inventions we are purely the masters at this sport.
Some more
Economics Golf (and don't start with yer Chinese/Dutch mince ;bat;) Logarithms US Navy (okay maybe not too much credit there) And one for Kev: Microwave Ovens
FFS Tank had to go and change half my post but great post, in keeping with our overall excellence
As today is a day to celebrate all things Scottish I feel we should give a cheer for those things scottish that we have given the world and for which they should be eternally grateful. As a member of the master race that resides above our little English cousins i don't like to poke fun at their expense particularly often. I try to treat them in the same manner as you would a petulant child, humour them to a point then remind them who is the Boss when it is required.
So I will start you off with a few and will drop back in as the day goes on to re-affirm our magnificence.
So easy ones to begin:
Penicillin Internal Combustion Engine Television Telephone's Bay City Rollers Deep Fried Mars Bars
Feel free to add to the list it is endless..........
C'mon Suz you can't leave if some numbnut sent you a snide e-mail. If i did that i would walk out of work at about 9.05am every morning.
If its due to a horrible run you know by now they happen but won't last forever if you keep doing the right things. I mean i was betting on draws for nearly 5 consecutive hands in a home game and the lucky fishes all had aces. One guy 2 hands in a row (but thats another thread) hey ho you can't win em all have another glass of wine and start again I say.
You are in the HoF for good reason. Blonde as I see it is an inclusive community for players at all levels which allows small stakes chancers like me to air our views on poker and endless other amounts of pisch with those who see poker as their job. No idea who would feel they have the right to question your inclusion other than somoene who "thinks" their great play hasn't been recognised frankly I don't care as it seems a rather sad thing to do.
All i can say is that i have thoroughly enjoyed meeting you at the tables (especially at about 4am on a sunday morning when i am hoovered and you and your mad sister wake me up before i donk off all my chips and i go on to score a 2nd place) and also at BB3.
